This app’s compliance with the above legislation, all of which are
stringent in nature, means that this app is likely compliant with the
data protection and user privacy legislation set out by many other
countries and territories as well. If you are unsure about whether this
app is compliant with your own country of residences’ specific data
protection and user privacy legislation you should contact our data
protection officer (details of whom can be found in section 7.0) for
clarification.

3.0 Personal information that this app collects and why we collect it

This app collects and uses personal information for the following reasons:

3.1 App visitation tracking

Like most apps, we use Google Analytics (GA) to track user
interaction. We use this data to determine the number of people using
our app, to better understand how they find and use our web pages and to
see their journey through the app.

Although GA records data such as your geographical location, device,
internet browser and operating system, none of this information
personally identifies you to us. GA also records your computer’s IP
address which could be used to personally identify you but Google do not
grant us access to this. We consider Google to be a third party data
processor (see section 4.0 below). We have recently submitted a version
that will anomalize the IP address so both ourselves and GA will not
have this data. Updating to our latest app version will bring this into
effect.

3.2 Children’s Privacy

The only thing we do collect are anonymous statistics of the usage of
the app, to understand it better, its usability and to improve the app.
We are using a third party service called Flurry Analytics and Google
Analytics. They store this information securely. These are the only
anonymous statistic information provided to us and no one else, to see
where we can improve our app. We do not know about any other information
such as: name, address, email, phone-numbers or photos.

We do however, use Mailchimp as our only form of data capture, which is an opt-in service behind a parental gate.

We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from
children under 13. If you are a parent or guardian and you are aware
that your Children has provided us with Personal Information, please
contact us. If we become aware that we have collected Personal
Information from a children under age 13 without verification of
parental consent, we take steps to remove that information from our
servers.

3.3 Contact forms and email links

Should you choose to contact us using the contact form on our Contact
us page or an email link like this one, none of the data that you
supply will be stored by this app or passed to / be processed by any of
the third party data processors defined in section 4.0. Instead the data
will be collated into an email and sent to us over the Simple Mail
Transfer Protocol (SMTP). The email content is then decrypted by our
local computers and devices. We would suggest that you always consider
email as an insecure medium and not include personal, confidential or
otherwise sensitive information within an email.

3.4 Email newsletter

If you choose to join our email newsletter, the email address that
you submit to us will be forwarded to MailChimp who provide us with
email marketing services. We consider MailChimp to be a third party data
processor (see section 4.0 below). The email address that you submit
will not be stored within this app’s own database or in any of our
internal computer systems.

Your email address will remain within MailChimp’s database for as
long as we continue to use MailChimp’s services for email marketing or
until you specifically request removal from the list. You can do this by
unsubscribing using the unsubscribe links contained in any email
newsletters that we send you or by requesting removal via email. When
requesting removal via email, please send your email to us using the
email account that is subscribed to the mailing list.

If you are under 16 years of age you MUST obtain parental consent before joining our email newsletter.
While your email address remains within the MailChimp database, you will
receive periodic (approximately one per month) newsletter-style emails
from us.

4.0 How we store your personal information

We do not store any personal information in this app. We only collect
data via our third party services such as Googly Analytics, Flurry
Analytics and Mailchimp.

Please note: Flurry Analytics and Mailchimp features will be removed from this app in version 2.0.

5.0 Data Breaches

We will report any unlawful data breach of our website’s database or
the database(s) of any of our third party data processors to any and all
relevant persons and authorities within 72 hours of the breach if it is
apparent that personal data stored in an identifiable manner has been
stolen.
